Certified teacher, 20 years' experience. Specialist in Business and Examination English Hello! I’m a certified (CELTA) English teacher with 20 years of experience, specializing in Business English and exam preparation (IELTS, Cambridge).

Paul Watterson is a rock star. He tailored his lessons precisely to what I needed most -- preparation for a job interview. He was patient with my mistakes and never once looked bored when he had to hear me give the same example for the 35,328th time in our practice interviews. His feedback was exactly what I needed. Seriously, Paul, I can't thank you enough.

Paul isn't only a exceptional teacher. As Benjamin Franklin once said, “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.” Thank you for the lesson, I enjoyed every minute.

I can’t thank Paul enough! Thanks to his guidance and preparation for my interview, I was able to land the job I wanted. Beyond that, he has been helping me refine my English presentation skills so I can excel in my new role. He is patient, encouraging, and truly effective. His lessons ' always have a good atmosphere. I enjoy learn with him.
